  5. Types of Design • Two types: Exploratory/Conclusive • Exploratory: to provide insights • Conclusive: specific and structured • Descriptive: describe groups, estimate percentages, make predictions • Causal: understand cause (independent) and effect (dependent) Asian School of Business, Trivandrum 2007

  6. Descriptive Design • Mostly used in marketing and business • Six Ws • Who: Who should we contact? • What: What information should be got? • When: When should we get it? • Where: Where to make the contact? • Why: Why are we getting this info? • Way: In what way are we going to get it?
